The Pittsburgh Steelers Future

In the 2010 season, the Pittsburgh Steelers competed in the Superbowl against the Green Bay Packers.  Steeler’s quarterback Ben Roethlisberger played a sloppy game and the Packers came away with the win, and title of 2010 Super Bowl champions.  This Steeler’s loss showed me a lot about the team, especially the quarterback.  Ben Roethlisberger is an extremely overrated player at this point in his career.

His success has only been achieved because of the great talented players that are on his team.  He throws many interceptions and does not make good decisions when under pressure.  I would definitely expect to see a lot more out of a player with his experience.  In my opinion, if the Steelers are smart they will not keep Roethlisberger around for many more years.  They should use him to get a great trade, either for draft picks or young defensive players which they desperately need.

The main problem with the Steelers is their QB.  They do have strength at most other positions, and the positions which are weak are getting stronger.  The Steelers may have success in the future, but as it is most of the time, the success will not be due to Ben Roethlisberger.
